Good things come in small packages.

by halcyon100 , Jul 19 '02
Pros: Excellent device interface, small size, excellent construction quality, sound quality
Cons: flimsy USB port cover, software, batteries
The sound quality is wonderful - on good headphones, the bass is strong - treble is clear - it looks great. Using the player itself couldn't be easier. The memory capacity leaves a bit to be desired, but if you're looking for the ability to hold about...

Solid Sony Quality

by kelleyja , Mar 26 '02
Pros: Sexy Styling, Smallest player around, solid all around Sony performance.
Cons: Tiny - easily dropped/lost, no belt clip/arm band. Non-swappable memory
This tiny player is a head turner with great performance, sexy styling and "Its a Sony" which means, you know what you're getting. When you buy a Sony you're buying the Honda of electronics - Its not a Ferrari but not a Pinto. Its reliable, good on...

Don't pay attention to the cynics...this ATRAC3 player is a keeper!!!

by dj_kinetic , Feb 03 '02
Pros: Ultimate portability, Most powerful sound of all MP3 players I have owned
Cons: battery life, poor software, not a mp3 player but a ATRAC3 player
Sony NW-E3 is the most beautiful ATRAC3 player in the world!!! It puts out the most incredible sound for such a little thing. I am a true believer in quality so I go with Sony that is made in Japan.

I'm not going to say anything negative...

Wow. Why did you plug your earphone to your lighter?

by wilsontam , Jan 26 '02
Pros: Physical Size, Material made with, Features, and Brand.
Cons: COST, Software (OpenMG), and Cable

My experience using this product:
The Sony NW-E3 is very small indeed, so small that I can't even find it in my backpack sometime. The buttons are not BIG, and it doesn't come with a remote like the MDs. The indigo backlit is really nice, it...

329.99 Lighter?

by pisharath , Jan 02 '02
Pros: Size, that's it!
Cons: Battery Life, ATRAC3 Format, Lack of Features
I received the NW-E3 from my uncle as a gift when it first came out into the market back in 2000. 329.99 was a steep price to pay, but it looked so cool and small. What I did not know is that a lot of features had to be sacrificed to get the player to...

It's pretty, and it's a Sony... Go for it!

by james_181 , Dec 31 '01
Pros: Compact, Stylish, Great sound, Durable.
Cons: Bland Software
This device is perfect for the intermediate/standard computer user. I recommend this for those who have Windows98 or 98se, and Windows2000 (with upgraded software). The only problem I have with this great device is being able to manage, organize, and...

Andromedas

by andromedas , Dec 15 '01
Pros: TINY SIZE!!!, build quality(made in japan) sound quality
Cons: MUST d/l 3rd party software to use it to full potential. easy loss/theft
I bought this at FYE onsale for an absolute steal at 79.99

The software it comes with is absolute trash with compatibility issues with all OS other than win98, so i found a Real player 2 that takes care of this problem. It converts files...

Great Little Unit...

by zedex9r , Sep 07 '01
Pros: Great Sound Quality... Easy to use... Typical SONY good looks and function!
Cons: BATTERY LIFE, BATTERY LIFE, BATTERY LIFE... and did i mention BATTERY LIFE?
Firstly, disregard the nay-sayers... THIS IS BY FAR THE COOLEST DIGITAL AUDIO PLAYER THERE IS! While not really a "true MP3 player" Sony's proprietary ATRAC compression and Open MG software are EASY TO USE, INTUITIVE, and best of all - SOUND QUALITY IS...

by cirtap007 , Jun 29 '01
Pros: Portability,Doesn't Skip!!Battery life,Ease of Use
Cons: Expensive Memory Cards
Sony has done it again with its new NW-E3! It is the best bang-for-your-buck for an mp3 player. Great battery life from only one AAA battery. Software is simple and easy to use, and is very fast. All i need to do is to download songs from the...

Highly Recommended

by blinkman86 , Jun 01 '01
Pros: Sleek Design, Easy to use, Quick Transfers, large memory
Cons: Battery usage, the original software sucked but i downloaded a new program from Sony
After purchasing this, I wondered if it was really worth the amount I paid. After using it and noticing how good of sound quality and how much easier to carry around than a CD player, i realized that it was a great buy. I usually can store about 18...

Sony NW-E3 Software Macintosh Compatible? YES!!!

by noprimadonna , May 28 '01
Pros: Sleek, Lightweight Design, Crisp Robust Sound
Cons: none
Allow me to start off by stating my purpose for being in the market for one of these things. I needed something that I could listen to music with - minus all the skipping and the bulking feeling I heard and felt with CD and Cassette Players. Then, of...

When is an MP3 player not an MP3 player?

by uk_gizmo , Apr 22 '01
Pros: Tiny, looks wonderful, good clean sound, fast USB transfers
Cons: Overbearing jukebox software, proprietary codec, battery life, can't fit extra memory
The NW-E3 is part of Sony's Network Walkman range of 'Portable IC Audio Players'. Small and sexy it may be, but be warned at the outset that this is not an MP3 player. Rather than MP3 the NM-E3 supports Sony's proprietary ATRAC3 codec which is a more...

Why are so many people putting this down?

by dwj100 , Apr 11 '01
Pros: Looks, good sound- Rich Bass with good headphones
Cons: Battery Life
I recently bought the Sony NW-E3. I was in two minds about it, after reading all of the opinions on this web site saying that loads of people had problems with the software, etc. However, even after reading all of the negative comments I decided to go...

Really great but not worth the cash

by supergurl8 , Mar 19 '01
Pros: Small, user-friendly, good music quality and storage
Cons: Expensive and low battery life
Good:
The Sony NW-E3 is very impressive in size and music quality. It is the size of a normal cigarette lighter and you get cd quality music. For my sony nw-e3, i can fit around 17-21 songs, depending on track size. The buttons are very useful...

worth the money, but only if it dosn't stop working.

by BioMachanical , Feb 20 '01
Pros: sleek, stylish, great sound, easy to hide from teachers.
Cons: extended use (4 months or so) leads to problems.
I realy did like this product when i first purchased it. I found the software easy to use. The upload was rather quick. the ability to copy entire cd's was fantastic. At first, this was the best music player i ever owed. I was always coplimented on...
